REASSEMBLY AND INSTALLA Tl ON

OF CYLINDER HEAD

All parts must be completely cleaned before

replacement. Examine the water jacket plugs
on the cylinder head and the studs on the top
face of the cylinder block for looseness, dam-
aged or stretched threads, etc. Cylinder head
nuts should also be examined to make sure they
are not damaged.

1. Replace the valve assemblies, as outlined

under the heading "Installing the Valves".

2. Remove the lengths of tubing securing the

cylinder liners, if they were installed earlier,
and carefully clean the faces of the cylinder
head and cylinder block .

3. Use a new cylinder head gasket and coat

both sides with a thin coating of aviation grade
Permatex, observing that the gasket is marked
"front". Locate the gasket over the cylinder
head securing studs. Fig. 11 - Combustion Chamber Cop Installed
in Cylinder Head
4. With the bottom face of the cylinder head
perfectly clean, it may be lowered into position
on the studs and the securing nuts tightened
down in the sequence shown in Fig. 10. The
nuts should be tightened to a torque of 40-42 ft.
-lbs. The tightness of these nuts should again
be checked after the engine has been run.

NOTE: The five long cylinder head

nuts should be installed between the
injectors.

5. Replace the generator adjusting link and

adjust the fan belt.

6, Check the push rods for straightness and

install them in place.

7. Loosen the tappet adjusting screws on the

rocker assembly and install the rocker shaft
onto the cylinder head, locating and tightening
the oil feed pipe. Tighten down the rocker
shaft, starting with the two middle brackets.

8. Adjust the valve tappet clearance to 0. 012

inch "cold", for both intake and exhaust valves,
by means of the adjusting screw and locknut, as
shown in Fig. 17.
9, To complete the assembly of the cylinder
head to the cylinder block, reverse the proce-
dure, as outlined under the heading "Cylinder
Head Removal".
Fig. 12 - Removing or Installing a Combustion
Chamber Cap
NOTE: When replacing the injectors,
ins tall new copper washers and tighten
the nuts on the flange evenly to prevent
the injectors from becoming coclied in
the cylinder head. Check that the in-

DESCRIPTION OF FUEL SYSTEM

The fuel system consists, basically, of the fuel tank, thermostart reservoir, ther-
mostart, sediment bowl, fuel lift pump, fuel filter, fuel injection pump and injectors.

In operation, fuel is drawn from the fuel tank through the sediment bowl by the fuel
lift pump. The fuel lift pump delivers the fuel under pressure through the fuel filter

DISASSEMBLY AND SERVICING THE CLUTCH . . . 2

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The MF 25 Tractor has two dry-type clutches which enable the tractor trans miss ion
to be stopped without stopping the PTO shaft. The primary 11" friction disc drives
the transmission and the 9" disc drives the PTO shaft. The primary pressure plate
is spring-loaded by twelve coil springs, located between the clutch cover and the
primary pressure plate. The secondary pressure plate is spring-loaded by a belle-
ville-type spring washer, located between the clutch cover and the secondary pres-
sure plate. Depressing the clutch pedal through the first stage compresses the
twelve coil springs and releases the primary clutch, stopping the movement of the
tractor. Depressing the clutch pedal through the second stage (noticeable by an in-
crease in resistance) compresses the belleville spring and releases the secondary
clutch and stops the PTO shaft.

The clutch is similar to the one used in the 35 Tractor and can be serviced with the
same special tools, with the exception of the alignment tool, which is smaller. The
following special tools are required: OTC FT 241 clutch alignment tool, FT 366
clutch release lever gauge, and FT 354 clutch capscrew feeler gauge. The clutch
pedal free travel is 3/4", measured at the pedal pad. To remove the clutch, it will
be necessary to split the tractor between the engine and the transmission.

from the hydraulic oil cooler at the connections
1. Disconnect and remove the battery. under the starter.

2. Remove the two nuts at the top of the
clutch housing.
3. Loosen the four bolts holding the steering
housing and instrument panel assembly in order
to lift the assembly up far enough to clear the
clutch housing.
4. Dis connect light wiring.
5, Disconnect the two wires from the starter
safety switch (one from the starter switch on
the instrument panel; the other from the starter
solenoid).
7. Disconnect foot throttle linkage.
8. Remove the exhaust system.
9. Remove fuel lines from tank to auxiliary
fuel pump and to ther mostart.
10. Place a suitable stand under the frame
and chock the front wheels.
11. Lift up the steering assembly, along
with the rear of the fuel tank, approximately 1"
and block between the tank and the engine.
12. Place a floor jack under the transmis-
sion case.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The 25 Tractor is equipped with an 8 forward speed transmission and 2 reverse
speeds. A sliding spur gear operating 4 forward and 1 reverse speed, and a sliding
auxiliary reduction gear operating high-low range. Fig. 1 shows a cross section of
the power train.

The gears are changed by two shift levers at the front of the transmission cover.
The short lever selects the "High" or "Low" speed ranges, and the long lever selects
one of the forward or reverse speeds. The gear change position is shown on a plate
just in front of the levers, on the clutch housing. A safety switch is located under this
plate and at the front end of the high-low shift rail. This switch prevents the engine

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
This hydraulic system is a new and different
unit, but operates on about the same principle
as the present Ferguson system. The system
is attached to the lower side of the lift cover
and operates from the transmission oil. (SAE
lOw-30).
It consists of a hydraulic gear type pump,
suction strainer, relief valve, oil filter, oil
cooler, piston and ram, control valve, and lift
